Shack recabling.
Posted by jeff in Old Shack Posts on June 21st, 2009
Also to note, I decided to rewire the inside portion of the shack and upgrade from RG-8x to RG-8u and also a quad Alpha-Delta switch. You can still see the existing 8x runs out to the outdoor grounding system, of which also feeds 8x up to the antennas. Only 200 feet of cable to replace… at $1.45/foot. Yikes.
The switch on the left selects either antenna (beam or vertical) or dummy load. The switch on the right selects the radio, either the Icom or the Heathkit.
